Even if you buy that extender, you won't be getting the correct power that your CPU needs. If you don't plan on stressing it too much, get the extender. But I wouldn't recommend it. Don't cheap out on a build. Buy a good power supply with plenty of headroom.

Yes. If the fans do not spin, then the power supply doesn't start. What power supply do you use? Have you checked the board's manual when connecting the front panel?

No it doesnt do anything ,but i have problem with front panel connectors i haven't connected these cables:
Message/power/sleep led
chassis intrussion header
Speaker
SPDIF_O(S/PDIF Out Header)
F_USB30(USB3.0/2.0 Header)
F_USB 1/2(USB2.0/1.1 Headers)

The power supply has a ATX 20+4 pin and a 4-pin CPU connector. Connect the 20+4 to the board's 24 pin connector and the 4-pin to the corresponding board's one. Connect a case fan to the molex or to the board's header. Connect the power switch to the board's connector. No other connections (disconect all other cables). Start the board. The fans should start spinning.

No, Romania. You'll check if the power supply powers the board (fans start spinning). You can find some tutorials regarding motherboard installation on Youtube. If you don't have the board's manual, I can provide a link.
